Ok, I used to play CFS3 and this thread has got my flying juices going. I'm happy to get IL2 but whilst reading the reviews on Amazon, I'm finding a few people complaining about the copy-protection.

What I'd like to know from you guys is will this be likely to be an issue like St#rforce?

I'd really like to get back into flight sims and I'm loving what I see from the screenshots, I just can't be doing with stupid, problematic protection.

Dug out CFS3 and had a play. Bit rusty can't remember all the controls, but had fun none the less

Me and the boys on the way to visit St Nazire

After visiting St Nazire things got a bit sticky

Quiet morning on USS Ranger CVA-61. Two ship CAP on the cats.

And Tomahawk flight is away! Gulf of Tonkin looks serene as we climb and start our patrol.

Formed up and heading inland a bit. Beautiful morning as you can see, somewhat foggy.

Red Crown alerts us to a handful of MiGs scrambling from the nearby airfield. We get the clear to engage and we break.

Tight turn with a Fishbed - exactly what NOT to do with an F4 (why do I still have my tanks?)

I hit the breaks and he overtakes. I wait until I get a good tone, call "fox two," and smoke him with a Sidewinder.

I bag two more, Tomahawk 2 gets one. Back to home plate after a successful patrol!

Hailing friendly bomber with my nav. lights as I take position in the formation.

Wishing him good hunting as he leaves the formation for anti-shipping mission.

Escorting damaged He-111 back home.

Mission Succesfull!

Why not? HL kicks the @®$€ off ASE...

The UK.ded servers are my favorites too, I guessed your screenies might be from them as Sepp flys there a lot.

To Fatty,

Not sure if you have it, but have you downloaded the update that uses Wings over Europe sky's.

From what I've seen, it adds better clouds in WoV.

fatty · 04-22-07, 09:11 PM

No sir, that was the absolute barebones fresh install. My brain was toasted from studying so I wanted to zap some MiGs for a break and put it on. Will get around to updating in a few days
